Air pollution associated with non-suicidal self-injury in Chinese adolescent students: A cross-sectional study.
Article in Chemosphere, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundNon-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) is a frequent phenomenon in adolescents and is closely related to eventual suicide. Although the effect of air pollution on various diseases has been extensively investigated, no studies examined its effect on NSSI in young students.
objectivesWe investigated the effect of air pollution on NSSI in Chinese students.
methodsWe investigated the incidence of NSSI in the past 12 months in 54 923 Chinese students with an anonymous questionnaire. We assessed the air pollution exposure of each student by the air quality matched with their schools, which were calculated by the inverse distance weighting method from the environmental monitoring data. We discussed the association between ambient air pollutants and the incidence of NSSI using generalized additive mixed models.
